How folded mountain ranges form?
lithosphere plates collide forming the folded mountains!
What type of mountains form in where rocks are being pushed together?
Folded Mountain
How do Folded mountains form when two plates converge?
neither plates are pushed under the other.
Do folded mountains form at convergent boundaries where two plates collide?
Yes, because of the huge compressional forces when two plates collide. This can happen at either a continental-continental boundary or a continental-oceanic boundary.
How many major volcanoes form the cascade mountains?
Penis Butt
What are the major forces that form folded mountains?
I think earthquakes and shifting plates (plate tech tonic theory) :)
How are folded mountains produced?
Folded mountains form when two plates move towards each other by compressional forces. The movement results in sedimentary rocks moving upwards to form a series of folds.
The pushing forces of two plates moving together form which type of mountain?
It forms folded mountains
What does folded mountains form?
In some cases, the folded crust can be pushed up high enough to form mountains.
These mountains form from compression.?
folded
What is the primary way that folded mountains form?
Folded mountains are formed when rock layers are bend under stress.
What type of mountains form compression?
answer: folded mountains suck coak
How folded mountain ranges form?
lithosphere plates collide forming the folded mountains!
What did the world's folded mountains form as a result of?
continental crust
What happens at a continent-continent convergence?
Folded mountains form
What happens at Continent-continent convergence?
Folded mountains form
How do folded volcanic and fault block mountains differ?
Volcanic mountains can erupt, folded mountains form when rock layers are squeezed together and pushed upward, fault block mountains form when tension makes the lithosphere break into many normal faults
